Projection of the lattices of the twin components of an orthorhombic twinned crystal (oP, b = [\sqrt3]a) with twin index 2. The twin may be interpreted either as a rotation twin with twin axis [310] or as a reflection twin with twin plane (110). The figure shows, in addition, that twin index 1 results if the oP lattice is replaced by an oC lattice in this example (twinning by pseudomerohedry).
